How do I copy items to a folder created earlier in the script?

Hey all.
I am a self-confessed newbie. I have created a workflow that connects to a server and navigations to a particular directory and then creates a folder named via an "Ask for Text" action. However later in the workflow I want to copy template files form another part of the server into the new folder I created.
The problem is I can get it to copy into the same directory as the folder I have created but not into the folder itself?
Any help greatly appreciated

Yey. I fixed it myself using "Set Value of Variable" after my intital Folder Creation Workflow.

  • How to remove an item in a folder in Reminders on the IMAC

    I am trying to remove an item in a folder in Reminders on my IMAC.  I tried holding down the control key and clicking on the item.  Sometimes I get a pop up menu with the "delete" option.  But more often than none when I do this I get a pop up menu to cut, copy etc...not to delete.  Why the inconsistencies in holding down the control key and clicking the mouse?  Is there another way to remove the item listed in the folder?
    Thank you for your help.

  • How to delete all items in download folder under bookmark in the shortest time?

    I understand that all downloads from internet and yahoo/google mail are stored in the "Download" folder which I see under bookmark when I want to delete. I think that if the download folder is never emptied, then my mac will slow down. Therefore I want to delete these downloads which I have already seen. How do I delete ALL items in the shortest time? Deleting items, even in groups, takes a long time. Is there a method that I can use so that all items in the folder are deleted in one stroke?
    Thanks.

    Try (first button on toolbar) Organize > Select All (Command + A) to select all items in the right pane in the Library.

  • How do I organise items in a folder?

    How do I organise items in a folder?  There is probably a really simply answer!  I want to change the order of items listed, but dragging doesnt work...

    mrstrong98,
    The solution you suggested is indeed the right one.  Just a few extra suggestions.  When prefixing filenames with numbers for sorting purposes, you should really use leading zeros to assure that they will sort correctly on your mac and any other devices.  So, if there is any chance that your book will have more than 9 chapters, then you should number them like this:
    01 - My first chapter
    02 - Another chapter
    03 - Yet another
    12 - The last chapter
    I would suggest a similar naming scheme for any files that you need to always sort in a particular manner that can't be accomplished with the built in sorts.

  • How can I copy my music files to my iPAD. The CDs are currently stored in folders on my PC. Note: Synching via iCLOUD won't work because I have VISTA OS and I need at least Windows 7 or 8.

    Hi ladextr,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  To sync your music to your iPad, first put your music in iTunes as described here:
    Adding music and other content to iTunes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1473
    Adding content on your computer to iTunes
    iTunes helps you add digital audio and video files on your computer directly to your iTunes library. You can add audio files that are in AAC, MP3, WAV, AIFF, Apple Lossless, or Audible.com (.aa) format. If you have unprotected WMA content, iTunes for Windows can convert these files to one of these formats. You can also add video content in QuickTime or MPEG-4 format to iTunes. To learn how to add these files to iTunes follow the steps below.
    Open iTunes
    From the File menu, choose one of the following choices:
    MacAdd to Library
    Windows
    Add File to Library
    Add Folder to Library
    Navigate to and select the file or folder that you want to add
    If iTunes is set to "Copy files to the iTunes Music folder when adding to library," iTunes will copy all content that is added to the iTunes library to the iTunes Music folder. To adjust this setting or change the location of this folder, go to the Advanced tab in iTunes Preferences.
    Once that's done, you can sync the music to your iPad by following this article:
    iTunes 11 for Windows: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad

  • How do I copy/paste full numerical-only account strings into the Projects WebADI template when the account segment fields in the template require use of the dropdown because they're formatted as alpha-numeric values?

    How do I copy/paste full numerical-only account strings into the Projects WebADI template when the account segment fields in the template require use of the dropdown because they're formatted as alpha-numeric values? I'm using the Integrator named "Projects - Transaction Import" and a custom Layout created based on the seeded Layout named "Transaction Import - Accounted". Do I need to somehow change my Layout to make the Document accept numerical values instead of requiring alpha-numeric values? I need to be able to populate the Document with a large amount of transactions and cannot feasibly go through every transaction to add the alpha-valued name of the account segment to every segment that requires it. The segments in particular causing the problem are "Expnd Type" and "Organization Name" which are both alpha-numeric and as such contain the segment number and name; I need to be able to only have to enter the Natural Account Number (6-digit number only) and the Organization Number (5-digit number only).

    You can't. You can take a screen cap of it, but the container doesn't allow access to the individual images used in a SWF or FLV.

  • Hi guys n girls. How do you copy a whole table to create a new table with all cell sizes in tact? Thanks for your help. Jason.

    Hi guys n girls. How do you copy a whole table to create a new table with all cell sizes in tact? Thanks for your help. Jason.
    when you copy n paste into a new table, all the cell sizes are changed.
    is there a way to put in a new table from your templates into an existing file, different to the standard very basic ones in insert table.
    I look forward to your answers.  Your help is very much appreciated.
    Also how do you search for question answers already written in this support area please.

    Hi Jason,
    In Numbers 3, you can select a whole table by clicking once in the table to make it active, then click once on the "bull's eye" at the top left.
    Now copy and paste. All formatting (and any cell content) is pasted intact. In Numbers 2.3 (Numbers '09) it is a little different for selecting a whole table. But I won't go into that unless you are using Numbers '09. Please reply.
    I don't like the look of the tables in Insert Table. I keep custom tables in My Templates. I have set Numbers > Preferences > General > For New Documents > Use template: (name of my favourite custom template)
    That opens when I launch Numbers, or ask for a new document (command n). Note that if you follow this preference setting, then Menu > File > New From Template Chooser (for another template) requires you to hold down the option key in that menu.
    Regards,
    Ian.

  • HT2729 How can I maintain folder structure when copying more than 1 folder of videos to the iphone?

    Spent hours trying to figure this out - no luck!
    I have a video tutorial course that I would like to be able to view on my iPhone, the only problem is that it is broken down into 6 folders - 1 for each subject.
    And if I add the whole course to be synced via iTunes it gets copied ok. But it loses the original folder names that the files are stored in on my PC
    ALL the videos files copied to the iPhone are bunched togeather in the Video app and it takes forever to figure out which one comes next.
    How can I maintain the original folder names/structure that the files are stored in on my PC on the iPhone?

    To follow how I solved this it might be good to know what I started with:
    I have a main folder which I called 'Music Theory' and  6 sub-folders: 101, 102, 103, ....etc.
    with up to 20 or so videos in each one.
    Note: Only import one sub-folder at a time into iTunes and then do all the following actions BEFORE importing the next sub-folder:
    Add only 1 sub-folder to the 'Films' section in iTunes (either drag and drop or use the File - Add Folder to Library).
    Select all the imported videos (hold down the Ctrl + A keys on the keyboard simultainiously).
    Right click and select 'Get Info'
    Then you may get a pop-up with this text but just click the 'Yes' button:
    You should now have the 'Multiple Item Information' window showing. Click on the 'Options' tab and edit as below:
    Tick: 'Media Kind'               and from the Drop Down Box choose:  'TV Programme'
    Tick: 'Part of a Compilation'   and from the Drop Down Box choose: 'Yes'
    Tick: 'Remember Position'        and from the Drop Down Box choose: 'Yes'
    Now click on the 'Video' Tab of the 'Multiple Item Information' window and edit:
    The 'Programme' text field (I entered Music Theory) This will be the main heading for all the folders that I want to add to this series.
    The 'Series' text field (I entered 101 for the first sub-folder)
    Now click the 'OK' button.
    iTunes now starts processing all you have done and moves the vildeos to the 'TV Progammes' section.
    The first part is now done!
    Now you should repeat all the actions you have done from the start on each sub-folder you want to include in this Video collection, then when you've done that you can upload the lot to your device (iPhone in my case) with this last step:
    All you need to do now is select your device under 'Devices' in the left hand menu and tick the 'Sync TV Progammes' box in the 'TV Progammes' section and select the series that you want include in the right hand area. And then click 'Apply' and now your done!!!    :-)

  • Please help - Copying items to another folder?

    I thought I was pretty good with Automator, but I've never done a folder action before, and I can't seem to get this one to work.
    I want to have any songs in my "Automatically add to iTunes" folder automatically copy themselves to my mom's "Automatically add to iTunes" folder.
    I tried a Folder Action with "Get Folder Contents >>> Copy Finder Items"
    and I also tried "Get Selected Finder Items >>> Copy Finder Items."
    My mom and I both have read/write access to each other's Music folders, so that shouldn't be an issue.
    Is this the wrong approach? What am I missing?

    You aren't specific about what the problem is other than "I can't seem to get this one to work", so I am going to guess that the items copied are not what you expect.
    A folder action is triggered when items (files or folders) are added to the target folder. The added items are automatically passed to the workflow, so you don't need to do anything more to get them. The *Get Folder Contents* action won't get the contents of the targeted folder, but rather the contents of any passed (added) folders.

  • How to tell if item is a folder or volume with applescript or shell script?

    I am working on a service in Automator that will eject the selected drive when it is finished. Unfortunately automator can only tell the difference between files and folders for the service menu.
    Im wondering if if i can use an applescript or shell script that would check if the selected folder is a volume or folder and quit the action if its a folder. I figure the best way to do this is have it determine if the items path is in /Volumes/, but i am completely new to the process and have no idea how to do this.
    My automator workflow looks like:
    Ask for Confirmation
    Get Selected Finder Items
    Shell Script
    I have the path of the folder selected being passed into the shell script, but after its in there i dont know how to determine if its a volume or not.
    Thanks!

    K T,
    I completely missed that section of the forums, sorry
    Neil,
    I had that kind of script set up but it was like this:
    on run {input, parameters}
    tell application "Finder"
    kind of item parameters
    end tell
    end run
    And i just figured out that i had to change the first line to "on run {parameters}" and now it works great.
    Thanks for the help, it got me going in the right direction
